Never dull...

I'm walking into Kroeger's Grocery Store to get myself a Starbucks Latte when suddenly I hear a crash and I'm watching, what I feel like is in slow motion, a blue Ford F-150 crash into the front of the store and a big outside lamp light falling onto the ground. The truck surprisingly backs up in a panic and before I know it I'm watching tires racing out of the parking lot. There were at least a dozen eye witnesses right there...and then there goes the "hero" white pickup chasing after them trying to get the plates. Which that pickup has success in doing just that. He gathers the nearby cop that was in the parking lot and so the investigation begins. I really had nothing to add to the police report so I just went in and got my Starbucks.

As I sat in line I listened to all the chatter about what just happened! Thankfully no one was injured. Then, as I find myself driving away and saying good bye to my new found friends (the other bystanders), I realize police lights all around. My first thought...wow, I'm glad I don't own a pickup right now. So, I continue home and as I'm driving I discover that I am trying to be a little detective...every pickup that goes by I take a good stare at. I thought for sure I'd find the pickup. Not sure why, but it kept me entertained until I got home!

Till next time!

One month of winter...

I just returned from my "one month of winter" into the beautiful spring weather of Savannah. Might I suggest that it is the best way to handle winter, enjoy it for a month and then GET OUT!

I did have a great time back in North Dakota. Many memories were made, including the very special anniversary Mikey and I shared. What a special night, we finally got engaged! What a blessing to know that I get to share the rest of my life with the man that loves and cares for me every moment of every day. We truly are the most fortunate people. And remember all my single girlfriends, waiting proves to be a good idea! Hold out until you find your prince charming like I did. It is SO worth it. We are going to start the beginning of our married life on June 7, 2008. I hope we can get as many people as we know to join us!

I'll be sure to post more about wedding planning later...check back!
